CONTRIBUTIONS
The approximate cost to film a movie is $6,000.00 per minute. Needless
to say, we have to raise a lot of dollars for a 90-minute feature. Emmett
Miller, my co-producer and I are most grateful for any and all contributions
of ANY amount to help with this worthy project.
$50.00 will fill up our gas tank in the van when we are driving from location
to location hauling camera equipment and crew.
$100.00 will pay for the rental of a microphone that will be used for
the sound while we interview one of our main characters (for one day).
$150.00 will buy lunch one day for our crew, and we work a typical 12-14
hour day with only a 30 minute break for lunch. The nourishment is essential
to give us fuel for the rest of the days work.
$200.00 will pay for the rental of a special long lens for one day for
special shots through a window to enhance the production value.
$250.00 will pay for our overnight delivery of Dailies so
we can see what we shot the previous day and know what we still need to
finish a scene.
$300.00 will pay for the transcription of one of our interviews so that
we can start the edit process.
$350.00 will pay for one light rental for one day when we are interviewing
someone in a dark room.
$400.00 will pay for one quarter of the insurance we need in order to
be able to rent equipment for the shoot.
$450.00 will pay for the directors flight to interview an important
person in the film who is located in Vermont.
$500.00 will pay for one archival photograph.
$750.00 will pay for a half-days work in a recording studio for
the score.
And the list goes on and on
. since we will probably
be working on this film for at least one year you can see how we will
constantly be multiplying these numbers.
